Colossians 1

21 You once were alienated from God, enemies in the way you thought and the way you acted, 22 but now he has reconciled you through his dying human body, bringing you into his presence where you stand holy, pure, and faultless. 23 But your trust in him must continue rock-solid and immovable. Don’t be shaken from the hope of the good news that you heard, the good news that’s been shared throughout the world—that’s the work that I Paul have been doing.
